Coös Economic Development Corporation (CEDC) invites you to once again support our locally owned businesses this holiday season. We are pleased to assist with the planning and marketing of this local event.

As you head out to gather gifts be sure to pick up a Passport to have stamped along the way. These will be available at each location. Five stamps on your passport will get you entered to win a great combination of goods and gift certificates to participating locations. Rules apply. The grand prize drawing will be held at 4:30pm at the Lancaster Motel. Please see rules below.

This year more than 20 businesses have joined together to offer a truly special holiday shopping experience. The Rialto Theatre will open the doors for a FREE showing of The Grinch at 10 am. This is a great opportunity to explore the revitalized Main Street, visit with shop owners, and start your holiday shopping with a fun, family-friendly day.

“We believe that operating together in this capacity versus in marketing silos will better benefit our community as whole to draw greater public traffic to the area for the day. It also gives visitors who are here for the holidays reason to stay in the area beyond Friday”, said Ericka Canales, Executive Director.

Small Business Saturday is a nationally recognized day designed to bring awareness to locally owned businesses and the impact they have on their communities and economy. Many people may think that Black Friday is the best shopping holiday of the year, but for those of us who love to shop local, that award goes to Small Business Saturday.
